@VANDEMORY1342 Thank you for the advice and rankings for those schools! Would Dartmouth also be a good addition to this list alongside USC, UNC, GW, and Alabama Honors College?
@IvyPlaywright You’re not going to get in because you are black, for example, a friend of my DD is black 4.0 UW, 4.5 W, great EC’s, and a 35 ACT was denied at Harvard, his first choice. Continue to work hard and you have a shot just like everyone else and with a little luck you can get in.
@IvyPlaywright Please don’t be offended by this but it seems as though you are prestige hunting. USC, UNC, Alabama, UGA, Auburn, and Drexel are very large schools and are completely different vibe and base culture than Harvard, Yale, Emory, Brown, and Dartmouth. Really decide what you like and what out of your college experience if its the smaller LAC feel than Brown, Emory, Dartmouth, HYP, and some top LAC’s like Swarthmore should be on your list. If you instead like large work hard play hard schools then, USC, Cornell, Vandy, UCB, and UCLA should be on your list.
@VANDEMORY1342 I appreciate the concern, and thank you calling attention to this. I can assure you though that I’ve done significant research into these schools, and I heard about them from the opinions of friends. Still, I will be more mindful about each of the schools that I choose to apply to, and I do honestly appreciate the advice. Thank you again!
